How do Dermal Fillers Work?

Dermal fillers work by replenishing lost volume and stimulating collagen production and hydration in the skin. Upon injection, the filler material fills in wrinkles and fine lines, restoring youthful contours to the face. Dermal fillers are not permanent but, over time, they improve your overall skin texture and elasticity.

Benefits of Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are safe and non-invasive aesthetic treatments that offer a range of benefits. They are used to effectively address several skin concerns such as: • Smoothing wrinkles and fine lines • Restoring facial volume and contours • Enhancing lip shape and fullness • Correcting body and facial asymmetry and proportion • Improving skin texture, natural collagen production and hydration

Risks and Side Effects of Dermal Fillers

While dermal fillers are generally safe when administered by a qualified practitioner, there are potential risks and side effects to consider. Common side effects may include temporary redness, swelling, bruising, and discomfort at the injection site. Rare complications such as infection, allergic reactions, and vascular occlusion can occur but are uncommon with proper technique and proper aftercare.

The process of getting dermal filler treatment with The Aesthetics Doctor typically involves: • Consultation: Dr Ahmed will listen to your concern, evaluate your medical history, discuss treatment goals, and decide the right treatment with you. • Treatment session: The filler is injected into targeted areas using fine needles or cannulas. Sometimes numbing cream can be used for comfort. Depending on your needs, you might need more than one session to achieve the best results. • Aftercare: Dr Ahmed will share the best aftercare recommendation, such as avoiding strenuous activity, excessive sun exposure, and certain medications. This will help minimise swelling and optimize results.

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable substances used to restore lost volume, smooth lines, and wrinkles, and enhance facial contours without altering your natural features. These fillers are typically composed of hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxyapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, or other biocompatible materials that your body already produces and stores naturally. This makes them the safest non-surgical and non-permanent option to give your skin extra volume and hydration.
